Josh's Mom,
We have known since last Aug. that Dr. Nath was recommending the caps surgery for my daughter. We had an x-ray done last Sept. as requested by Dr. Nath and it confirmed his suspicions. I wanted her seen in person (at the Aug. gathering he couldn't see the kids so we showed him a video)so that is why we waited to schedule her surgery. With an April 20th surgery date she won't get her splint off until mid June. We wanted her to be able to enjoy the summer and play outside, go in the pool, etc. The summers tend to be short in upstate NY!
